On Tuesday, poet-writer-lyricist Javed Akhtar has also filed a defamation suit against the actress Kangana Ranaut. It has been stated that Akhtar filed the complaint before the Andheri Metropolitan Magistrate, seeking action against Ranaut under the relevant provisions of the IPC for defamation.
Earlier, Kangana Ranaut through his tweets alleged that Javed called her to his residence and threatened her on speaking out about her relationship with Hrithik Roshan. Her sister Rangoli also tweeted on the matter where she claimed that Bollywood lyricist-writer Javed Akhtar had once called the actress home and threatened her before asking her to apologise to Hrithik Roshan. The Ranaut sisters’ allegations made Javed take the legal step against Kangana.
Now Kangana Ranaut took to Twitter and reacted to the filed suit against her.
The actress quoted Shiv Sena politician Sanjay Raut’s tweet which reads, “Lyricist Javed Akhtar files criminal complaint against Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut for making defamatory statements on national and international television.
